reproduction aluminum cast builder plates and or railroad heralds
Posted by Locojunkie on Monday, October 18, 2010 9:37 AM

I want to locate and purchase reproduction aluminum cast or brass cast builder plates or railroad heralds. A few years back, I was attending the local train show in Harrisonburg, virginia and there was a vendor there that had these cast aluminum railroad herald signs. I should have purchased one then now I can kick myself of course for not getting it at the time I saw it. Does anyone know the person that sold these or anyone that sells them.

Do a search of the internet for them; I entered, "Cast Locomotive Builder" in Google and got several hits for both Real and replica builders plates. 

If you decide to go the "real" route, do be sure to first check: http://www.thegallos.com/stolen.htm for a list of reported stolen railroadiana.
